He removed all things Clemson from his social bios… is this something to be worried about?

Andrew Mukuba is not a significant loss at the safety position. He has had 1 INT his entire career at Clemson...YES, ONLY 1, and it was a meaningless INT against Ga Tech. Mukuba is beat CONSTANTLY down field. He loses leverage all the time and is caught out of position. The 4th and 1 play against South Carolina, Mukuba was caught with his eyes 8n the backfield and South Carolina converted and almost scored. R.J. Mickens is a better safety. I believe Nate Wiggins will be moved to free safety or the will give Jadyn Lukus a shot. Jadyn Lukus is extremely fast and can cover up a mistake quickly. I personally believe Lukus will be a SUPERSTAR in 2023. Also, the return of Malcolm Green will help us, along with Toriano Pride having a year under his belt....We will be fine!!!GO TIGERS!!!!

Mukuba played out of position at CB much of the year. There's a reason Venables started him as a true freshman.
He will be missed. The defensive backfield was a weaker point on the team this past year, and depth had a lot to do with it. Losing Mukuba doesn't help

He will only get better. He has the skills but part of me wonders if he is being developed.

Lukus is going to be a superstar next year but not at safety he’s as natural a CB as we’ve ever recruited. Covil Jr will be the star at safety haven’t seen someone so similar to Brian Dawkins since Brian Dawkins the kid flies around with absolute reckless abandonment

I saw that. I wonder what happened this year. Acc defensive rookie, one of the highest rated safety we've signed. We were all excited about this year after his freshman year. So it's not a PT issue. Hate to see him leave.

This was discussed in a previous thread. From what other Tnetters have said, he did the same thing at the end of last year. At this point there are no indications he is leaving. Just everyone speculating.

I hope he stays. He was playing out of position (CB) a lot this year due to injuries and a lack of depth. You can't blame him for that. T. Pride and J. Lukas may have a bright future at CB, both appear to have the ability, but as true freshman they were not ready to take on a full load this year. I would love for them to be ready in 2023 and be able to keep Mukuba at Safety all year.

Let’s not downplay the fact that this won’t be a huge detriment to our defense if he bolts. He is a stud and if you think otherwise, you don’t know jack about football.

Why would we not want to endlessly speculate about why an 18 year old does what he does on social media? Are you saying we may have no idea??
